She's broken-hearted homeless and unemployed. And she's just turned forty. But Nancy has a secret weapon. Desperation. </p><p>Relying solely on her finely-honed ability to make stuff up as she goes along and the battery life of her cordless drill she's determined to make a fresh start (one that on no account features men of the falling-in-love-with variety).</p><p>After purchasing land on a whim at the foot of the Southern Alps in New Zealand Nancy attempts to settle into country life. She finds the vista of the mountains healing. She also finds a tall dark and gumbooted stranger (who proves to be therapeutic in other ways).</p><p>But when she discovers her precious view is about to be taken away Nancy faces a hard choice. Should she play saboteur to protect her own happiness even if it means losing the man who just might possibly be the key to it?</p><p>Maybe her fresh start is actually a false start. Or maybe she's learning a thing or two about how to be a kick-arse self-reliant woman.</p><p><em>The Year of the Fox</em> is the first of four stand alone novels in the internationally award-winning Good Life series.</p>
